Sorry, are trying to match something to your vinyl or wanting a colour suggestion to do it all in?

In which case surely walking along the rattle can alley in halfrauds will be the best inspiration next to visiting a body shop or paint supplier & looking at colour swatches.

Nearly all the manufacturers produce a vehicle in a metallic grey in many shades. Peugeot, Proton, BMW, Volvo, FORD & Vauxhall all make a grey I would use.
